For those who simply read the abstract: Despite the hype, there is an absence of evidence that collagen supplementation promotes beneficial effects on tendon properties provided adequate daily protein intake (>1.6 g/kg/d)

I love watching students walk in front of a bus like they could definitely take the hit.

The air conditioner in this lab isn't working and it both feels like and smells like death...

Nothing like being at the only person sitting at a bus stop to make you paranoid about it not actually being the correct bus stop.

CVS/Caremark: $300 billion revenue per year

Median physician salary: $208k

The media: Why are physicians so greedy do they hate America?

You know who also learned valuable skills? Free people. And unlike the enslaved, those free people could keep the $ from those skills, they could buy property with those skills instead of be property, they could support their families instead of have their children sold from them

In 1996, Perdue launched OxyContin, the pill that would ignite the opioid crisis - an explosion in drug use that has shaved years off US life expectancy.

Many of those scripts were written for back pain.

Today, we discover they probably never worked

This morning, as I grapple with the passing of my aunt…

A gross distortion of my father’s beliefs on equality; a horrible misuse of his image to oppose something he pressed for:

Policies/programs that prevent ‘white supremacy’ laden inequity in hiring, college admissions, etc

Right now, rage is the only thing keeping me from giving up entirely.

You know the Supreme Court had themselves quite a day when you see all these white conservative politicians quoting MLK out of context. 🤷🏻‍♂️

Let’s talk about Black physicians (5% of all physicians). We have statistically lower MCAT and Step scores. However, Black physicians taking care of Black patients decreases mortality. If we let less Black applicants into medical school, more patients will die.

Period.

[uché blackstock, md @uche_blackstock]

The Supreme Court's decision to strike down affirmative action, including in professional schools, like medical and nursing, will have detrimental consequences on Black health for generations to come. This is about life & death for us. Today, we are only 5% of physicians.

“Never play chess with a pigeon.

The pigeon just knocks all the pieces over.

Then shits all over the board.

Then struts around like it won.”

Everyone deserves a living wage.
Everyone deserves housing.
Everyone deserves education.
Everyone deserves healthcare.

Advocating for such is an act of love.

My grandfather was deep brown. My grandmother was white passing. She had to ride in the back seat when they were together in the south so they wouldn’t get stopped.

There are people panicking about “America falling” cuz the POTUS displayed a Pride flag.

Y’all not serious.

Classes locked in for the Fall semester. Biostats will likely be the death of me.
